Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).
Overview of Geckoboard#
The Geckoboard API grants you the power to craft custom dashboards that display key metrics and performance indicators for your business. With this API, you can push data to widgets, create and manage dashboards, and automate the sharing of insightful data visualizations. When leveraged through Pipedream, you can build workflows that connect Geckoboard with various other apps, enabling real-time data updates, integrating with your current tools, and powering automated reporting processes.

Overview of Delay#
The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.
Connect Delay#
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
